Choosing Half Round Cast Iron Guttering
Frequently Asked Questions
For appearance at normal viewing distance, yes — the profile and the deep shoulder are what the eye reads. It will not rust, does not need repainting, and a single person can handle a 4m length. Real cast iron is heavier, stronger against ladder knocks, and is what a listed building or a conservation officer may require.
Look at the front edge from the ground. A plain curve is half round, a flat face with a square shoulder is square, and a moulded, shaped front is ogee. Then measure across the top of the gutter: 112mm and 114mm are the common domestic sizes, with 125mm, 130mm and 170mm on deeper and commercial systems.
Fascia brackets are normally fixed at 800mm to 1000mm centres, closer where snow load is likely, with a bracket within 150mm of every union, angle and outlet. Set a fall of roughly 1:600 towards the outlet, about 3mm per metre, so water runs off rather than standing in the bottom of the gutter.
Not reliably. Profiles that look alike often differ by a few millimetres across the seal, so a union from one system may not grip, or may leak, on another. Match the profile and size already on the building. If a run is being replaced piecemeal, bring an offcut or a photo of the union before ordering.
